Thanks! I had 2012 f250, that came without them. I always looked as if it was missing something to me. Also, you might notice I did not order the body side moldings. Love the clean look without them. I ordered this truck exactly the way I wanted it.

I will tint the fronts to match the rear windows. Add LED lights in the bed.
Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Hi Chief1302,
Yes it's home. All went well. The gears are great. Makes a big difference, compared to my 2012 f250 6.2 with 3.73 gears. It doesn't hunt around as much for the proper gear. Truck gets up to speed better as well. I only drove 117 miles, but it was all highway and meter says 14.8 ave mpg. I do not regret the decision for the 4.30 axles. I will really appreciate them whe. I hook up to my 8000# travel travel.
Also, the camper package, as it includes heavier spring packs and sway bar, makes this truck drive nice. Sure footed. Rear seams planted and it's not to harsh either. Overall I'm very happy! I will post pics shortly. It rained on my way home so it's dirty. I will clean today.

Good to hear the 4.30 gears are working for you..
I was undecided before ordering about going diesel again..Had diesels for the past 20 years. Will be pulling a 12K fifth wheel.
The waiting is getting tougher..Five weeks tomorrow and still no window sticker.

Yes!! I can't express enough, how much I love the 4.30 gears!!!! Picked my daughter up at college for the holidays, ave MPG was 14.8 round trip 110 miles. Trucks drive so nice. Also, I was a bit concerend when ordering camper package with regards to stiffer springs, but I'm completely surprised at the ride quality. So, all in all I'm completely satisified. The truck is loaded with Lariat Ultimate package, Navigation, heated seats in front and back, sprayed in bed liner, chrome package. Love driving this truck!
